  • For Whom Should We Pray?

  • 16 years ago
  • Dear Mike: I finished watching your two videos from the Cleveland Bible conference, and very much enjoyed them. I have a question, though, as it pertains to prayer. You made it clear that we are only to pray for other believers. Do you think I should keep praying for specific people on my list? I'm... [read more]

  • Our Every Prayer Answered

  • 16 years ago
  • Hi Mike, I was just reading one of your recent posts and I'm again 'amazed' at something you pointed I just never "saw" in the Word. Mat 8:5  And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him, Mat 8:6  And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick... [read more]

  • The Need To Pray

  • 16 years ago
  • Hi Mike, Jesus prayed to the Father "yet not my will but your's be done" and Jesus taught the Lord's prayer in teaching the disciples how to pray "thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven". How does this reconcile with the "counsel after His will"? Does this mean that our temptations are allowed... [read more]

  • Should We Pray With The Orthodox?

  • 16 years ago
  • Hi Is, Was and Will Be Team, Thank you for all your messages. They are helpful. I can't seem to find an answer to a question I have on praying with the orthodox family. Should we kneel together to pray with the orthodox believers as they pray in the name of the father, the son, and the holy ghost? 1... [read more]

But my heart said I could reach out to you for help, and I was right. I have read Rightly Dividing the Word, Wow!  I really believe He sets stumbling blocks to se... [read more]

  • Is A Prayer Shawl Scriptural

  • 17 years ago
  • The other day I was watching a Christian preacher on tv using a Jewish prayer shawl, also he was trying really hard to get us at home to buy these things.  It got me thinking because after studying Judaism for awhile I thought that someone at some point didn't realize that there was more to the...

  • What To Pray For As They Ought

  • 17 years ago
  • Hi Mike, I have a question for you, and I was not able to find anywhere on your site that you have written on it. If you did, then I missed it. Twice in Romans chapter 8, verses 26 and 27, we are told that: "The Spirit makes intercession for us" (The saints) And we are plainly told that the rea... [read more]

  • Can We Change God's Mind?

  • 17 years ago
  • Hi Mike Whenever you have some time, would you mind explaining this verse or even point me to where I can find some clarification? I tried the 'search' on the IWWB and noticed that you have alluded to this verse, but could not find anything more.  Mat 18:18  Truly I say to you, W... [read more]

  • Not My Will But Thine Be Done

  • 17 years ago
  • Dear Mike, Several weeks ago I sent a question re: karma in the bible and you were kind enough to reply.  I also thanked you for helping me to understand the total sovereignty of God.  And I shared with you how that knowledge has helped me to be able to forgive. Somehow, my mind wants to connect ... [read more]

  • Pray Without Ceasing

  • 17 years ago
  • Hi M____, Thank you for your question, and thank you for your conclusion to your question. You ask: "So, outside of that, what more can we do,  hope or pray for in order to effectually change, have impact on, or expect to have any different outcome at all other than "God's will be done" already...
